RE: Festus BaileyI am going to add a picture of Festus's grave tombstone that my father took in about 1959 before the St Lukes hospital built a hospital on that site. Now a parking lot covers the cemetery. They said they were not aware of the cemetery when they built the site until the uncovered the remains. Patti Bailey Boothe helped me prove that this is where the cemetery had been. The tombstones were all gone I suppose. George Evertte Bailey was buried inFairview cemetery, Brownstown, Indiana and his wife's name was Arnetta. His brother, Frank H. Bailey, Sr was my grandfather. I don't have a picture of George Everett's grave but would like to see one if you have contacts in Indiana that would take it I would like to know about that. Fran

Festus BaileyThe picture you have posted as festus Bailey is actually his son George Everett BAiley. It was given to me by Bill Hansbarger but was a mistaken for Festus. Later years grandson of Bessie BAiley sent me the actual picture of Festus which I have posted today.

In an effort to provide more accurate information about this family it has come to my attention that Amaziah Mottinger 1824-1849 was actually Reason's brother. Could you please remove his name from Reason's children list.
